President Obama arrived in Aurora, Colo., on Sunday afternoon and he is expected to make a public address there, although he will not attend a prayer vigil in the town on Sunday night. "I come to them not so much as president but as a father and a husband," Obama said. "I confessed to them that while words are always inadequate in these kinds of situations, my main task is to be a representative of the entire country and to let them know that we think about them each and every day." Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper read aloud the names of each victim, and after each name, the crowd chanted "we will remember."
